Abstract

This study aimed to understand how the police play a role in addressing criminal acts of sexual abuse against minors and to identify the factors that contribute to the occurrence of such crimes. This research employed a juridical empirical approach, which merges legal methods with empirical data from field studies involving the police, case documentation, literature reviews, and relevant legal materials. The study findings indicated that the police's role in handling child sexual abuse includes preventive, preemptive, repressive, and restorative aspects. In the preventive and preemptive aspects, the police conduct legal counseling, child protection campaigns, and cooperate with schools and communities to provide awareness about the dangers of sexual violence. In the repressive aspect, the police conduct investigations and legal actions against perpetrators based on applicable laws and regulations, such as the Indonesian Criminal Code (KUHP) and Law No. 1 of 2023 on the Indonesian Criminal Code. The restorative role is manifested through victim assistance and psychological and social recovery for children who are victims.

Abstract

This study aims to understand the role of social media in shaping the political perception of youth in Tanggikiki Urban Village during the 2024 General Election. In the increasingly advanced digital era, platforms such as TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook serve not only as communication tools but also as instruments for political campaigns, spaces for political education, and platforms for expressing political views among young voters. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study method. Data are collected through interviews, observations, and documentation from various informants, including young people, local officials, and members of the election supervisory committee. The findings reveal that social media plays an active role in shaping political opinions among the youth, encouraging participation in political discussions, and increasing awareness of electoral issues. However, negative impacts also arise, such as the spread of hoaxes, opinion polarization, and the creation of echo chambers that limit political perspectives. Therefore, digital literacy is essential for enabling youth to use social media critically and responsibly in support of a healthy democratic process.
